Is this fixable? Broken Screen

My friend gave me his Bell Galaxy S3 it is a SGH-I747M to repair if I can.
He said he was making a video while driving a car at about 80kmh and dropped the phone out the window and this is the result. The back panel barely even has a scratch. The bezel has few bruises but the screen is totally destroyed. It's possible that a car ran it over I'm not sure.
The screen does not turn on at all. I can charge the phone, I can hear it turn on and it makes sounds and vibrates during the opening video, it still receives text messages and phone calls as you can hear the notifications go off. And the touch key buttons (back and menu) still light up. The leds at the top still light up too.

I'd think so. Try getting a replacement screen (maybe give it a month and wait for a bad esn phone) and replace it.

My concern would be if the ..oh what the hell is it called, the capacitive touch pick-up part? is damaged. Screen itself shouldnt be too expensive or hard to replace, but that part could prove to be quite the tit.

iFixit has a teardown of the SGS3 that seems to indicate that it might be harder - or at least, more expensive - than you think: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Teardown/9391/1

Yeah, it's not easy, but it is doable. This site http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Teardown/9391/1#.T-AmIxeXSjP will show you a Teardown of the Samsung Galaxy S III. Also here's a youtube video http://www.google.com/url?q=http://...twIwAA&usg=AFQjCNG6aQgFNGyrNHDUzCcLecgR7qRHvA on How to Replace Screen to walk you through it.
Hope This Help's

The phone is still alive. Only the screen is pretty much useless now. Either sen it to Samsung and have them repair at an expensive fee or do it yourself which is $200~. My vibrant had the same symptoms too. I wouldn't imagine a phone that survived after dropping out of a car running at 80 kmh

if the phone is still under warranty, i would just send it in for repair rather than doing it yourself, which will almost certainly void the warranty. chances you get a working phone are 100% if you do that
in my experience it is better to send back to manufacturer for repair or a 3rd party than trying to do it yourself, especially if you don't have a lot of experience with cell phone hardware.

Just get insurance for it. Then after 30days call them tell them the screen is broken and they either fix it or replace ur phone. That is the best thing to do.

Sammy warranty does not cover this.

i would still recommend sending it back to samsung for repair.
i would also tell your friend to refrain from activities which could send his s3 charging towards the ground at 80+KPH in the future

Bad Phone Habits

I was wondering if it's just me or do you guys fall asleep with your S3 in bed? I usually read the forums till I fall asleep and naturally forget to put it on the bedside table. I end up waking up with it lost in my blanket or sleeping on top of it having it sandwiched between the bed and I. Hopefully this doesn't damage the phone or anything with it being so thin I'm afraid I might break it if the habit continues; I don't really mind the radiation. Lol.

These threads get better everyday!
Now we have sleeping with the S3.......custom vibration tips?

Since no study so far has been able to even hint at ill effects by electromagnetic radiation (and you don't care about it anyway) you're safe on that side.
I think the highest risk would be your phone falling off your bed or getting thrown out during rem sleep.
The mattress are good protectors and your weight is distributed across the body so I don't see a very high risk there but it's still possible.
You could set yourself an alarm with eg 30min snooze intervall (Alarmclock xtreme is good at such configurations) to wake you up.
Ultimately the decision is between you getting less sleep to protect the devi(e or the device running the risk of damage.
Anternatively you could get one of those badass case protectors but they make the phone feel clunky.

I often take it out to check a message and put it back only to take it back out to check the time.
But my real bad habit is probably taking it to the toilet with me. Haven't dropped it yet and give it a wipe with disinfectant once in awhile.

Broken the USB port -_-

Last week when charging my phone, it slipped off my desk and something happened inside the phones USB port. The little metal contact was moved out of place. I could still charge, but it had to be at a certain angle and if I picked it up it stopped charging.
And this morning, I broke it even more. I dropped it into a bowl of milky cereal. I didn't think it would be too bad. I wiped it down and I've been using it fine all day at college. But I've just got home and went to test if it still charged. On my own little USB cord I had from elsewhere it didn't work, but on the official LG one it worked after a LOT of shuffling around and changing the angle.
I'm gonna leave it as it is to make sure it doesn't stop charging, because I don't have a wireless charger handy.. I would also prefer to get the official orb from Google, because I don't want to spend a lot of money of something that doesn't work very well.
I was wondering if there is a way to fix this myself, or can I get a replacement from Google/LG?

I'm actually quite careful with my phone! It's just very smooth and slippery..

I would call them and tell them it no longer charges.
See what they say. Worst thing they do is say not covered.
I would omit the milk and dropping parts.

So if I just say it's stopped charging, they might be kind a send a replacement without any hassle? Or would I have to return the device?

Qi charger for $35 - too good to be true?

http://www.fasttech.com/products/1197502
Includes FREE worldwide shipping. Is this too good to be true? I'm keen to give it a shot, but can't seem to find a brand-name or anything. According to the seller its compatible with our phones, but I'm always sceptical of no-name-brand Chinese things, especially if it could damage my precious.

Don't think its branded at all. Their return policy seems pretty good. Seems as though you would only have to pay for shipping if it's not an error on their part. I assume DOA's and the thing breaking down within the warranty period would constitute as free return paid by them. Post a review if u decide to try it.

I received mine today but for some reason I only seem to get 94% charged and won't go above it... I'm still trying to find if anyone else is having this same issue but nothing at present...

Some of us on xda ordered some it's some post down from this one they said they got and it works I'll get mines tomorrow. I ordered it on the 7 of January

Unlike the other one, this one (for $35) seems to be one of the WPC certified chargers, although I am not sure if it means much.

Is the blue light overly bright and annoying? Are there beeping sounds? Is it easy to get it to charge, or does it only charge when placed in a certain way?

Because on other Qi chargers, a lot of people complained that they lose connection when knocked a centimetre off centre.

You can move it around a bit but not too much, it'll work sideways, longways, etc. and I've also got a case on without an issue.

Maybe once you remove your case, it will charge over 94%.
I am just kidding.

Has anyone looked at the one labeled just "Qi Wireless Charger"?
It's white, and I don't like that, but it's completely flat, so it'd probably fit the phone better...?
Better as in, if you have to turn it around, then it'd be better, since with the large one, the casing seems to be raised at the top, whereas the standard one is completely flat, so flipping it around wouldn't really be that big of a deal.

This is not the same charger as the one being discussed in that other thread.
To repeat the OP, this is the charger discussed here:
http://www.fasttech.com/products/1197502
Mine arrived today. My early thoughts:
1.) It feels pretty cheaply made, but its a simple device and I can't really fault anything about it as far as build quality goes.
2.) The Nexus 4 has to be placed upside down for charging to take place. Bit of a shame, but no reason why you can't just use the pad itself upside down instead.
3.) Unlike the comments from another poster here, I was relieved to see my phone charge to 100% without any problems.
4.) The flashing blue LED is annoying and doesn't seem to do anything other than flash continually whether it is charging or not. I'll probably open it up and kill it, and/or simply tape over it with black tape.
All in all, pretty happy for the price paid, and glad to be able to reduce the wear and tear on the microUSB port.

Sorry, when I say "upside down", I don't mean face-down. Rather, the charging port needs to be at the top. Obviously that's where the sensor / coil lines up best with the phone; can't think of any other reason.

Wholly crap hib i didnt see it was you, ya im on a guys gs5 selling him a wireless charger and noticed gs4 reciever works fine. Nice to see ya!!

The cover is really, really annoying. Especially for me, who uses bluetooth through my car speakers for my main music stuff. So each time I get in the car I plug the phone into the 12 volt. And each time, I have to pry open that cover. The worst part is, it doesn't even stay open! I also just got my Incipio dual layer protection case in the mail and now its even harder to get the charging cover off. It's really aggravating. I don't even think it closes correctly either. It always looks like its not snapped down all the way. Just, bleh. Most annoying quirk on the 4 Samsung phones I've owned.

just get the spare battery charge kit so you never have to mess with it. Its also a better means of going from zero to 100 than wireless charger

Yeah I'm not really sure what to do here. I have a bunch of 3D models for phone docks / car docks / etc for the gs3 and gs4, the battery cover is a total nuisance on the gs5, especially because it doesn't really stay open after you open it (I'm trying to imagine how to go about designing a dock for this thing).
I do 3D modeling and have a 3D printer, if anyone has an idea for an improvement... holler. I doubt we'll see any kind of other 3rd party replacement otherwise as it's attached to the phone and clearly involved with waterproofing. not sure if it's worth the trade-off!
anywho guess I'll be giving wireless charging a try again...

If you take off the battery cover there is a screw where it holds the USB cover just take it off your not prone to accidents

Yeah definitely good that it's easy to do that - personally I'm not really upset or frustrated; it's awesome to add waterproofing - I'm just trying to puzzle out the best way to keep the feature while also making the phone easy to slide into a dock (preferably with one hand), you know?
